EFFECTS OF CO2 ENRICHMENT ON GROWTH OF LEAFY AND CONIFEROUS YOUNG TREES

Y. Milhet, C. Costes
Propagation of ornamental conifers by cuttings is favoured by CO2 enrichment of air. This enrichment improves also the growth of the following young conifers : Cupressus Arizonica, Larix decidua, Pseudotsuza Douglasii, Taxus baccata, Pinus nigra and Picea excelsa. However, Cedrus Atlantica has no profit from supplemental CO2 ; CO2 enrichment has a beneficial effect on young oaks , principally in the presence of only nitrate-nitrogen nutrition.
